Abstract
Gugara by Andrzej Dybczak and Jacek Nagłowski is a very interesting, unhurried narration about Eveneks, an indigenous people of Siberia. The film won a number of important prizes at documentary film festivals, and is considered by some to be an anthropological film. In the interview Dybczak talks about various ideas and solutions employed in the documentary, his approach to filming and the use of colour. He also considers the documentary in the context of anthropological cinema.
